The smallest possible saturated azaheterocycle, aziridine, is
well-known to organic chemists for its tremendous potential in
pharmaceutical chemistry and organic synthesis. The general
biological importance of aziridines is proven by the fact that they
found several uses as subunits in pharmacologically active
compounds such as antitumor agents, enzyme inhibitors, and
antibiotics. Although aziridines are highly reactive, this
framework occurs in many synthetic compounds and the natural
products of biological interest also contain aziridine skeleton in
their structures. The synthetic community is captivated with
prospects of selective synthesis and conversions of aziridines.
Several important advances in this area have been witnessed in
recent years and discovering efficient novel methods for the
synthesis of aziridines has been very active field of research. Its
powerful synthetic utility has been described by an overpowering
amount of documentation on the approaches for the formation of
aziridine. Synthesis of Aziridines and Oxaziridines from Imines
describes the new and old methods for the synthesis of aziridines
from imines and covers an important and rapidly growing branch of
heterocyclic chemistry. Readers will have access to different
methods and information allowing them to evaluate which method is
most suitable for particular cases.
